I hope Bob doesn't object...

From main.c:

*   18.11   minor bug in EvaluateDevelopment() found by Bruce Moreland.  the  *
*           pawn ram code is now disabled when playing a computer, although   *
*           the normal 'blocked pawn' code is always active.  bug in the code *
*           that penalizes a rook with no horizontal mobility was fixed.  if  *
*           the first rook scored had horizontal mobility, the second rook    *
*           appeared to have this mobility as well, which was wrong.  pawn    *
*           hash statistics were wrong on longer searches due to an int       *
*           overflow on a multiply and divide calculation.  this has been     *
*           re-ordered to avoid the overflow.  for unknown reasons, epd       *
*           support was disabled.  it is now enabled as it should be.  some   *
*           strange adjustements to root_alpha/root_beta were removed from    *
*           searchr.c.  they were probably left-over from some sort of test.  *
